MatchProperties

public MatchProperties(java.lang.Class type,
                       java.lang.String typePropertyName,

Creates the match properties for a type given some available (unmatched) properties propagated from above.

Parameters:

type - the type to match for

typePropertyName - the name of the property containing this type, or null if this is a main type (not dependent)

availableProperties - the collection of available properties (from above). The properties we match at this level is removed from this collection!. So the collection can be passed to other dependents than this, wich will have available only the properties still not matched.

Method Detail

hasMatches

public boolean hasMatches()

Returns whether there are some matched properties here

setUnmatched

public void setUnmatched(java.util.Map properties)

Sets the unmatched properties to uase at this persistent type and below (dependents). This is done on persistent types which has their own relational tables.
